The species
is rather variable and sometimes is hard to distinguish from kebea.
The position of the costal patches and the pale veins crossing the central
field and the row of submarginal dots, however, are distinguishing characters.
The hind margin with a row of dark dots in the fringes. The forewings can
vary from pale yellowish brown (see picture at the top of this page) to almost
chocolate brown (see below). In kebea the basal two third is usually
dark brown and sharply defined without crossing pale veins.

Distribution

STATUS:
Rather common, but females are seldom seen. The species seems to
prefer low and moderate altitudes.
